Half-mug of milk, half of coffee, three spoons of sugar. A bit of vanilla creamer, if available.

I'm a simple guy, but I've been drinking the stuff ever since my late grandma made it for us way back in the day, so I can't really start my day without my morning cup'a joe!

I really do like coffee, still now, still more used to put some milk into it, but I also like it black.
No sugar. Ever. Sugar bad.

That said, this new batch from Nespresso "Variations Nordic" is awful, I am starting to think they just put some dog shit into capsules. Damn bad.

PS: yeah, I still drink Nespresso, I am lazy and really like the capsules.

Caffeine is a very useful chemical for the coffee tree. It is a natural insecticide and herbicide. Insects which eat it die and plants around the tree grow slower. Robusta trees have more caffeine in them which makes them more pest-resistant. Arabica trees produce nicer tasting beans but have stricter growing conditions.

I like my coffee with milk and cream, no sugar. I've tried various flavourings like cinnamon, maple syrup and whiskey but never liked them much.

Post your favourite coffee here.

I like coffee made with freshly ground beans with milk and cream and no sugar. The beans I use have an intensity of 3/5.

I like black coffee made with freshly ground bean and no sugar at all. And I prefer decaf. I don't drink it everyday. Just once in a while. Mostly, I drink everyday is green tea and no sugar. For daily part of healthy. :)

I prefer darker roast coffee as I find it has more flavour to it. I used to drink it with 2 sugar and 2 cream, but I quit putting sugar in it a few years back. I can stomach black coffee, but it's not my preferred way of drinking it.
When it comes to things like tea, I pretty much like it all.

OP
I use a French Press and am particular about my beans, most of which come from South East Asia's Indonesia and Africa's Ethiopia; all of which are Arabica, as I enjoy their flavour profiles and aroma.

They are, in order of favourites:
  • Wamena Papua - INDONESIA
  • Kalosi Toraja - INDONESIA
  • Yirgacheffe - ETHIOPIA
  • Palm Chivet - INDONESIA

I have been drinking Wamena Papua as my go-to for the last few years; if you haven't tried it then I wholly recommend.
It has a chocolate-caramel nose and a thick, smooth hazelnut taste.

Usually 3 Teaspoons or 15 GR into 220 ML of hot water inside the French Press.
Taken either Black with No Sugar or with 30 GR Dehydrated Milk and 30 GR Sugar to get that smooth sweetness out.

I usually just go for my single-serve coffeemaker if I'm making coffee. When I do, it's commonly a medium roast--typically any dollar store donut shop blend will do on an average day--and I take it with two spoonfuls of sugar and a shot of creamer. I tend to trend towards Dunkin Donuts' Extra Extra creamer whenever possible; as long as the coffee's got about the same color as one of my sandstone-colored tee shirts, with that musty burlap canvas brown tone, it's fine by me.

If I'm drinking ANYTHING stronger than that, it's only if I can shell out the eight bucks for a bag of pre-ground Death Wish brand, and that's few and far between. And it's typically only in an ABSOLUTE emergency.

    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
